Hi,

The amazon support team would probably be a better source of advice than us. Unfortunately, I suspect the answer you'll get from them is that their servers are not designed to support ad-hoc tomcat/java installations due to the security implications.

Thanks,
Mike

Actually, this looks like you're running the installer in silent (non-UI) mode. You should be able to pass in the DB to use as part of the commandline, but we've heard it doesn't work on some Linux distros.

The best option is to use the alfrescoXXXXX.tar.gz bundle and install and configure by hand - it's not that difficult.

We will be having improved installers in the future that have console-based install support.

Cheers
Paul.
